Birdwatching
and birding vacations
The Canadian North is the summer destination for birds from all over the Americas. Five North American flyways converge in the Mackenzie Valley, one of the world's great bird migration corridors. Birdwatchers can keep a sharp eye out for over 200 species of birds of the Northwest Territories. Spot a raven, a year-round northern resident, challenging a bald eagle for food, or marvel at a white pelican calmly feeding its young in the midst of a raging rapid. In summer, there are opportunities for bird watching and bird photography near every community. Local guides and birders offer tours, and some Northwest Territories lodges and camps offer special birding vacations.
